<p>[QUOTE="ascot, post: 199862, member: 96"]Agree. I'm thinking this may be a sugar bowl. Fanciful sugars or sucrieres were made by a number of companies in the 19th century. The rectangular ones with hinged lids from the late 1800s seem to be the most plentiful and are quite pricey. Most are attributed to Baccarat but I've never seen any proof. Vallerysthal also did some very fanciful sugars, as did other French companies. It's unfortunate that Baccarat has never published a comprehensive guide to its production. They used to have a link on their French website where you could send pics for authentication, but I don't believe it's still there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
